NEW YORK -- A New York City veteran and double-amputee was honored Friday and gifted a new truck, modified with hand controls, at a Memorial Day event at the USS Intrepid.
"They said an organization wants to donate a truck and I was shocked," retired Sgt. Luis Remache said.
Remache tested out his modified Ford F-150, perfectly fitted with hand controls, CBS2's Natalie Duddridge reported.
"It's giving me a part of freedom. I'm able to maneuver around more," Remache said.
